100 Day Challenge: Day 54
So after last night's little escapade I realized that I seem to be back where I started from.
That being I need to remember to have faith in what I want manifesting for me and that I'm where I'm at because of choices I've made.
Interesting and empowering, I feel a lot better now. Not to mention I've let go of some long held resentment toward my mother of all people. Glad I've let go of it, but now I feel bad because I've hurt her and she didn't deserve it. I've taken responsibility and now I'm formulating an apology, well actually I've already apologized for it but I think something larger is in order. Not sure what yet.
Anyway, I was reintroduced to the power of affirmation and holding strong intentions in my mind today.
Interesting that things start to become clear now that I don't have school weighing down my mental processes
Ended up reading a really powerful article on: Geoff Thompson's website titled: Per Ardua Ad Astra.
After which my mindset changed and I started asking myself why I don't accept success and why I blame others for what is clearly my responsibility. Then there was also an: Insight of the Day story about faith and intention and how powerful they are when we have no doubts in hour hearts.
So yet again, I'm back where I started with: What do I want?
The good news is: that while I feel like I'm back at the beginning I know I'm not because I've become more honest with myself about what I want and who I am.
I've gotten back in touch with my nerd and I've embraced that part of myself. I love being active, but my nerd must be expressed. Funny thing is, I actually feel a renewed sense of vigor toward studying Martial Arts! I also remembered that I love putting computers together (for the most part anyway, sometimes heatsinks/coolers can be a royal bitch to install). There's something about handling components that gets me going, not sure what it is. I like tinkering with things, making them faster, cleaner, better, etc. (Now if I can just figure out why the heater in the Mazda won't work, I won't freeze!)
Off to bed
Everyone make it a great one!
100 Day Challenge: Day 6
I have the beginning of a migraine. Oh well, I'll see how I feel in the morning
I didn't have any earth shattering revelations today, I did however see lots of people doing things they love to do and making what I'm assuming is at least a good living. My brother-in-law Dave left a Facebook status the other day that said he was happy my sister is making more money taking pictures than he is working as an EMT. I know he's happy for my sister, but I think he's also happy that he doesn't have to work overtime any more
From what I've seen it's been good, they seem to have a lot more adventures together now, they and their two daughters. So really what more can you ask for doing something you enjoy?
I've also been thinking about how much I've been enjoying writing these blog posts every day. Sometimes (like now) there are times where I think it would be easier to go to bed. But I'd rather let my creative juices flow.
Something great that did happen today, was that I was talking to my above mentioned sister Brittney and she said she's been reading my blog. She said it's like reading a good book and told me I should have started writing a while ago
Thanks Sis!
With following my passion, I am becoming more and more enthusiastic about helping people improve their lives. A big reason I'm doing this is so that I can show other people how to do it. I've seen some amazing things over the last few years and I'm sure it's because of the kind of thinking I'm involved with now. So I figure a great way to help the world become a better place is to show people what can happen with a little faith and some diligent work.
Notice I didn't say hard, reading some positive material on how to change your thought processes, being more conscious of my thought processes, and working to change them really are anything but hard. I'm starting to be more playful with it, a better word would probably be curious. I'm not particularly attached to the outcome, after all when I take a step back and look at my life really hard. I really don't have anything to complain about, I have a job, I go to school, I study Martial Arts, I have a loving family, I live in a beautiful valley, I've never known what it's like to starve. As a US citizen I have lot to be thankful for. As well as a real heritage that I think needs to be lived up to.
I have had some other ideas floating around in my head but now the migraine is really starting to make itself known, so I'll save them for later
Make your life a great one!
